Turns out I'm a Great Cultivator
Chapter 617: Palm Sword Cliff, Jiang Lu's Dilemma
After finishing his sentence, the Soul Master—still bathed in bright light— floated across the sky. He still remembered the horrors he felt all those years ago that forced him to split his soul into pieces just to ensure his survival. He planned to gather all the pieces of his Soul Rest so that he could stand at the top again.
The group watched him leave and fell silent for a long time, each immersed in their own thoughts. They were contemplating the things that the Soul Master had just said to them. The information shocked them, causing them to take it seriously. However, it still did not answer the question in their hearts.
“I know there must be a reason for experts to be like that.”
“The Soul Teacher has instructed us not to wake him or let anything disturb him in this crucial moment of his life.”
“Do you think the expert is in a special state of enlightenment? And the best thing is not to bother him?”
“No matter what, we have to make sure that no one bothers him in this state!”
“Hahaha, we are the chosen one, the key of the whole plan!” Xiao Chengfeng was proud of herself, as if she had found her purpose to live. “The expert trusts us so much that he is willing to entrust his life to us!”
A linchpin refers to someone who is indispensable or vital to the success of an organization, someone who has been specially selected by superiors to solve all problems and is at the forefront of all battles. In general, a wrench must go through a lot of misery and risk falling at any time.
That thought did not deter Xiao Chengfeng. Instead, he became very excited, excited, and sparkling-eyed. The rest of the group felt the same way as he did. There was a smile all around.
“That means our existence is indeed very valuable!”
“I'll never disappoint an expert!”
“We have to train harder so that we can better serve experts as a wrench!”
“Yes, let's work harder everything!”
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. The reputation and influence of the Area of the Gods had developed to such an extent that many powerful forces had been attracted to it.
During that period of time, something big had happenedThe powerful organization that used to avoid the world emerged from the Chaos and landed in the Area of the Gods, the, declare themselves to be descendants of Elite Beings and possess their Inheritance!
The organization was called the Cliff of Sword Palm and its followers were all sword cultivators with shocking and unparalleled strength. They quickly gained fame throughout the Area of the Gods with its dramatic entrance and domineering ways of doing things.
Not long ago, the five followers of — who humbly declared themselves only as sword apprentices but actually had great strength — out of the Cliffs of Palm Sword, joined in, joining in, and took out a high-level member of the Heavenly Realm.
This news shocked everyone in the Area of the Gods and catapulted the Palm Sword Cliff to the top. After that, there was always an endless line of worshippers going up the cliff.
Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Cliffs of Palm Sword, the crowd of sword cultivators had gathered to discuss. The tension in the atmosphere was very pronounced. Their leader did not exist because his seat remained empty.
“How is the secret border research? Did you find out who got it? ” ask a responsible Elder.
“According to the intel we received, it was a group of people from Chaos who entered about a month ago. As it turns out, they have incredible strength and come from an incredible background,” replied a follower with admiration in his eyes. “But this secret border now belongs to the Heavenly Temple.”
“The Ministry people were also involved but they were almost annihilated by the people from the Heavenly Temple,” added another follower in a cautious voice.
“Time line is suitable! That must be the secret border of Wisdom Elite Being!” The elder's eyes shone brightly while he continued in a hasty and determined tone, “Technically, he continued, we—The Cliff of Palm Sword— is the true heir of the Elite Creature because he had given us his guidance many years ago. Therefore, only we have the right to inherit his secret border, no one else!”
The secret border was created before the death of the Elite Creature and had to be filled with its Inheritance. The benefits will not be limited once they get it.
“Great Elder, Heavenly Temple can be easily destroyed once his master is here,” said a follower, excited at the thought of an all-out battle.
“Master has not been able to exit. That's why he ordered me to dig up information about the secret border. In addition, this problem is so small that we do not have to worry about it. ” He then shook his head and smiled meaningfully. “I have a fragment left behind by Elite Being with me and it has already produced a resonance. With this, we can figure out the approximate location of the secret Border Legacy! Send some people to look for it now!”
At the same time, everyone enjoyed themselves in the four-piece building. Li Nianfan could be found watching the news in the morning. He did not deny that it was good entertainment, making his life a little less boring and a little more fun.
There were news of the settlement of foreign sects, the throwing of banquets, and the fight between sects, all with moving images accompanying it. Like Tik Tok Immortal version which certainly makes the content very interesting.
“Wow, this Heavenly List is interesting. It gave a record of all the sect members who had reached the rank of the Heavenly Realm.
“The area of the Gods has so many sects now! It must have gotten bigger.
“And this Sacred List records all the names of Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal. Apparently, they all had the ability to undo the Laws themselves and were on their way to reach the ranks of the Heavenly Realm. How interesting! You can tell how strong they are. It gets me all pumped up!
“I never knew you could kill people of different ranks.
“I'm so envious! If only I were a true transmigrant, I could at least be listed on the List of Saints and shock everyone with my strength.
“My life was in vain. Sigh.”
‘Oh well, I can always live through them by watching the news.’
Li Nianfan's current mentality was similar to his previous life. Even though he was not a successful person, it did not affect him in the slightest because he could always join in having fun by giving his opinion or analysis of everything.
At the same time, two figures were heading towards the Fallen Immortal Mountain from a distance. They wore brown training uniforms and their sword-like brows gave them an innate sharp aura. They shot brilliantly like rainbows in the air with their flying swords under their feet.
Their speed was not fast and they looked like they were looking for something, looking around on the ground from time to time.
‘Big Elder said it should be around here, but we have searched for three days without showing anything. How deep is it hidden?’ they're wondering.
Cut it! Cut it! Cut it!
Suddenly, they heard the sound of cutting wood that instantly caught their attention. They were both mocking at the same time when they discovered it was just a simple woodcutter. However, their pupils contracted rapidly and they nearly fell from their flying swords when they saw the sword the woodcutter was holding. In an instant, they landed where the woodcutter was. Their faces were not friendly at all.
Jiang Liu glanced at them and continued to chop wood. “I am just an ordinary woodcutter.” He was in a hurry to send firewood today to his experts.
“Show us the long sword you have in your hand!” command others firmly.
Cut it! Cut it! Cut it!
Jiang Liu ignored them and continued his duties.
“You seek death!” The two sword cultivators emitted a murderous aura at the same time and one of them went to Jiang Liu with a long sword in his hand.
A blood-red fog had gathered around the sword slash with enough strength to pierce through the mountain. Jiang Liu continued to ignore them and swung his sword at the tree. The shockwave from the attack nullified the slash attack.
“I have no intention to kill any of you. Go now!” jiang Liu said calmly.
The two followers smiled coldly at their realization.
“So, you are a monk. Do you really think you can escape detection by hiding here?
“I'll get to the point with you. The sword you wield contains the Inheritance of the Wisdom Elite Being. It's not yours. Leave it if you don't want to die.
“We are followers of the Palm Sword Cliffs. We can make you our swordsman if you cooperate with us!”
Jiang Liu stopped what he was doing. “You know about this sword?”
“The true owner of this sword is the teacher of the Palm of the Hand Sword Cliff, so it is of course ours!” his followers said arrogantly. “You just returned what is rightfully ours.”
Jiang Liu fused his brows. “The Elite Creature did not mention a legitimate heir when he gave me this sword. Moreover, the fact that this sword was given to me meant that he agreed to me! I don't believe the Elite Creature will leave its Legacy to a group of people who not only treat others without respect, but will also use violence to get what they want.”
Jiang Liu was not stupid. He would not easily hand over the Elite Creature Inheritance without any evidence. Besides, even if what they said was true, then how? This sword was given to him by his experts and he did not want to disappoint him. He would not give up this sword at any cost!
“It never ends well for greedy people.” The follower's eyes turned cold as he gave the final ultimatum. “Kneel in front of me and beg my forgiveness. I'm probably considering letting your corpse stay intact. ”
“Don't waste your breath on him. How dare he insult the Palm Sword Cliff! He must die!” said the other follower, his sword was already drawn. The aura emanating from his sword turned into a drizzle that pointed straight at Jiang Liu.
The glint of the sword was dazzling and flew in all directions. Both of them were at an early stage of becoming Quasi-Saint, but due to their enormous sword fighting power, they were more like mid-level Quasi-Saint.
However, they were still no match for Jiang Liu.
Stunning but useless, Jiang Liu said as he shook his head. His expression remained expressionless as he brandished his finger.
In an instant, it was as if the king of all swords had possessed him and he had the ability to master all the swords in the world. The attacks sent from the followers stopped in midair before turning around and aiming at them with their greatly increased strength.
“How is this possible?” his two followers. Their eyes opened wide in surprise. They activated their defensive skills, but unfortunately, it was useless against incoming attacks.
Cut it! Cut it! Cut it!
The slash attack left a thousand wounds all over their bodies. They fell to the ground with blood spurting out from every wound on their bodies.
“How did you two know about this place?” jiang Liu asked with a stern expression on his face. It was important for him to know the answer because it made him very worried to realize that the expert could be bothered by their presence. He would do anything to make sure it would not happen under his watch.
Not long ago, he had been told by the people in the Heavenly Temple not to cause any disturbance or let anyone disturb his experts. He would not be able to forgive himself if the expert was frequently bullied by visitors of the Fallen Eternal Mountain.
“We are followers of the Palm Sword Cliffs. It will be a game for you if you dare to kill us!”
“Faulty answer.” Jiang Liu shook his head and stared intently at his followers. In an instant, a red wound appeared on his neck, completely destroying his Primordial Spirit.
“Your turn to answer my question!” jiang Liu said to the remaining followers. His tone was as cold as the polar wind.
The follower trembled in his boots and was terrified. He felt as if there were 1,000 swords pinning him down. “The Elite Creature left us a piece of sword science fragment that can detect the location of the Inheritance. That's how we found this place.”
“Thank you for your answer,” said Jiang Liu. As soon as he said that, his followers eyes widened as a similar red wound appeared on his neck.
Jiang Liu fused his brows and was deep in thought. If it was as the Palm Sword Cliff had said, then he should not stay there any longer as his presence would attract more trouble.
“I am their target, which means wherever I go, they will follow. Therefore, I must go as far away from here as possible to prevent them from interfering with the expert, ”hung Jiang Liu. He was clear about what he should do. He lifted the chopped firewood onto his back, once again taking on the role of a simple woodcutter, and began to climb the mountain. He would first say goodbye to the expert and come back again when this matter had been resolved.
It didn't take long for him to arrive at the entrance of the four-part building. “Lord Saint, I'm here to deliver freshly chopped firewood!”
“Is that you, Jiang Liu? I came,” said Li Niangfan from inside.
After a while, the door opened. Jiang Liu placed the firewood he carried on his back and handed it to Li Nianfan. “Good morning, Holy Lord.”
“Thank you for all your hard work,” said Li Nianfan with a smile. In his mind, he thought that Jiang Liu was a very honest child who practiced gratitude well because Jiang Liu kept his promise to send firewood to Li Nianfan every day without a word grievances. “Look at this neatly cut wood. You have improved so much, Jiang Liu. I can tell you've really put your heart into this.
“You're too good, Mr. Saint. I just touched the tip of the iceberg.” Jiang Liu was secretly pleased with the expert's praise.
“No need to be humble,” said Li Nianfan with a smile. “You came in time for breakfast. Will you join us?”
